Arizona -1.5
Total: 160 points
UCLA has one of the best offenses in college basketball. The problem for the Bruins, especially moving forward, is their inability to play any defense. If you are out-scoring everyone you should win quite a few games, but when it comes to the NCAA Tournament a good team should be able to slow them down just enough to make a difference.
The Bruins have won six straight games overall. Arizona, on the other hand, has won five in a row and 20 of the last 21 games overall. The Wildcats look like the class of the conference this season and they already own a victory over UCLA on the road.
Arizona is nearly unbeatable in Tucson, having lost just once since the beginning of the 2013-14 season. That's an awful lot of wins to pile up over that span of time and with a win in hand over UCLA already, the Wildcats can expect a strong effort from the Bruins here.
Allonzo Trier and Lonzo Ball should both give this contest the star power needed. ESPN is in town and this late game atmosphere after a full day of college basketball will hopefully live up to the hype. Arizona wins because of their dominance over opponents at home.
